NDIS_STATUS NdisUnicodeStringToAnsiString(
IN OUT PNDIS_ANSI_STRING DestinationString,

Parameters

DestinationString: Pointer to a caller-allocated buffer in which this function should return the converted ASCII string.
SourceString: Points to the Unicode string to be converted.

Return Values

NDIS_STATUS_SUCCESS indicates success. Otherwise, the contents of the buffer at DestinationString are unaffected.

Remarks

The caller must allocate storage for both the source and destination strings and release these buffers as soon as the strings are no longer needed. The buffer at SourceString must be at least twice the size of that at DestinationString.
